Eoin "Bomber" Liston (born 16 October 1957 in Ballybunion, County Kerry) is an Irish former sportsperson.
He played Gaelic football with his local club Beale, his divisional side Shannon Rangers and at senior level for the Kerry county team between 1978 and 1993.
[4] In 1978 Liston made it two Munster under-21 titles in a row as Kerry retained their provincial crown at the expense of Cork.
[5] Kerry later qualified for a third All-Ireland final in four years, with Liston playing at full-forward in his first championship decider.
The Kerry forward lobbed the ball over the head of Paddy Cullen, who was caught off his line arguing with the referee.
[6] In 1979 Kerry made it five-in-a-row in Munster as Cork fell by ten points in the provincial final.
Ger Power did not start the game, while John O'Keeffe got injured and Páidí Ó Sé was sent off during the encounter.
Another defeat of Cork in the provincial final gave Liston a third Munster winners' medal in succession.
Mikey Sheehy popped up again to score the decisive goal, as Kerry went on to claim a 1–9 to 1–6 victory in a game that contained sixty-four frees.
In 1981 Liston won his fourth consecutive Munster title, before lining out in the All-Ireland final against Offaly.
'The Kingdom' bounced back the following year with Liston winning his second National League medal and his sixth Munster title.
Jack O'Shea scored a key goal after eleven minutes and Kerry stormed to a nine-point lead at half-time.
A Peter Quinn goal gave the Ulster men a six-point lead in the second half; however, the game was far from over.
Spillane ran fifty yards up the field for a hand-passed goal to get Kerry back on track.
Liston's side lost out again in 1980; however, in 1981 he won his first Railway Cup winners' medal as Connacht were accounted for.
[citation needed] Liston also served as a selector under Seán Boylan for the Irish compromise rules football teams in 2006 and 2008.
